    Awesome!!!!!!!!! not just his looks but talent and skill... hide show

    loving Don Eppes [numb3rs] and Doc Hollins [movie: Bucket List] need to find other shows and movies that show off his Talents Never actually seen 'northern exposure' but will find it VERY soon!!!
    Cant wait for new numb3rs; RM/DK relationship as on-screen brothers is sometimes painful to watch but in a good kind of 'I-can't-bare-to-look-but-i-have-to'way (especially in 'when worlds collide') which is a tribute to both actors, they have the ability to make the audience cringe or cry at will! Any other big RM fans will love numb3rs wiki i'm already a member its great fun and everyone is welcome to join

    I like the show numb3rs and I like the cast, my favorite one is Rob Morrow and David Krumholz that plays the brothers. I like the actor who play thier father on the show, and the rest of them that are on the show. hide show

    The show numb3rs is a good show that shows how two different professions can work, the show is a family base show that has to deal with two brothers and thier father. Rob morrow is my favorite of the show of all the actors, he is a very talented actor who can play different roles. I seen him in movies and some I like and some I don't, that is a good thing because if they play the same person every time no one will watch them. I like him better in numb3rs playing Don Eppes the FBI agent, who brought his brother Charlie in to help with the crimes. He plays a very caring boss to the people he works with, and a protective brother to his brother Charlie who he loves. You can see the chemistry between him and the rest of the cast, they all get along really well and act like a family when they are together.

    Rob is a good actor. hide show

    I think that Rob Marrow is a very talanted actor. I really like him in the show Numbers. I think tht he does a really good job with his character Don Epps in the show. I was not all that surprised to learn that he is a writer and a director for movies and television show. Just like i was surprise to learn that he directed a couple of episodes for the show Joan of Arcadia. I use to love that show when it was on the air. Hope Numbers continue to do well because i like to see him in the show Numbers.

    A truly great and underappreciated actor. hide show

    Rob Morrow is an excellent actor and very diverse. The range of characters he has portrayed on TV and in movies is immense and he is able to truly become the person. His portrayal of Dr. Joel Fleischman in Northern Exposure was true NY snobby doctor - it took a long time to change him into a solid, emotional person - but the jounney was believable. On Numb3rs his character Don Eppes is 180 degrees from Joel; but he completely pulls it off. He is now the tough, justice yielding protector of us all. He is able to once again become the character and you forget every role he's played. He makes the FBI and his family seem as if they are right there with us. His movies have been the same - Quiz Show, Only Love, The Emporers Club - all diverse but done above and beyond. Deserves a huge nod from Emmy.
